A waterfall trek with the logistics handled. From hotel pickup at 7:00 to motorbike transfers that drop you near the trail, this all-in tour keeps you focused on Sekumpul and the Fili (Fiji) waterfalls. I especially like that entrance fees and lunch are built into the price, so you avoid the usual add-on creep. One thing to plan for: it’s a long 8 to 10 hours with real walking and slippery rock, so you’ll want solid footwear and decent physical fitness.

You’ll go beyond a quick viewpoint stop. With an English-speaking trekking guide, you get local tips for the best photo moments and the right way to move through wet areas. The day can also include optional extras like Ulun Danu Beratan temple, Wanagiri hidden hills, or Bali’s Handara gate, but those entrance fees aren’t included.

This is a private experience, meaning it’s just your group for the trek portion. And yes, the fun part is also included: you’ll have access to a jumping point and a water slide river area, with a safety helmet and supervisor.

Key points that make this trek worth your time

• All-in pricing: entrance tickets for Sekumpul and Fili waterfalls, plus lunch and bottled water
• Hotel pickup and drop-off: you start and end with less hassle in Kuta-area logistics
• Motorbike transfers: a big time-saver that also makes the journey part of the experience
• Guide-led trekking: you get English support and practical local tips for moving safely
• Water access included: jumping point and a water slide river spot, with safety gear provided
• Optional scenic add-ons: temples and viewpoints if you want to extend the day

Hotel pickup at 7:00 and the drive to Lemukih

Your day starts early. Pickup is listed for 7:00 am from your hotel, with transportation to the Lemukih area where the trek begins. Expect around 2 to 3 hours of driving from Denpasar to reach the start region, depending on traffic and how many photo stops your driver adds along the way.

This matters more than it sounds. Sekumpul and the surrounding village paths aren’t “right off the highway.” Getting dropped near the right area means less time lost on winding roads and more time actually hiking and cooling off in the waterfall zones.

If you’re worried about the exact meeting point, don’t be. This tour is designed around hotel pickup and drop-off, which is a big deal on Bali when scooters, lanes, and meeting spots can be chaotic.

Motorbike transfers: short rides, big payoff

Once you arrive in the Lemukih village area, the adventure changes pace. You’ll ride motorbikes to the trekking start point, and then the real hike begins on foot.

These transfers are included, and they’re not just convenience. They compress the time between “in the car” and “on the trail,” which helps keep the day enjoyable rather than exhausting. It also gives you a glimpse of rural Bali routes that you’d likely miss if you only did the usual beach-and-temple circuit.

Practical tip: treat this part like part of the trek. Wear shoes that can handle wet conditions, and bring the towel and spare clothes you’ll need later.

Sekumpul Waterfall: where the trek turns scenic fast

Sekumpul is the headline. The schedule includes arrival at the Sekumpul area, then heading toward the start point and beginning the hike. Admission is included for the Sekumpul stop, and the tour includes enough time to enjoy the area rather than rushing through.

What I like about how Sekumpul is handled here is the structure: you do the morning drive, transfer to the trail, then spend focused time in one main waterfall zone. That’s how you actually get worth from a full-day trek in the humid Bali weather.

What to expect on the ground: you’ll be moving through wet areas where footing matters. The tour also nudges you to bring what you’ll need for water-time later in the day: shoes, a towel, sunscreen/hat, and a change of clothes.

Possible drawback: the day is long, and Sekumpul is not a “flat stroll.” If your knees don’t love uneven surfaces, pack for that reality and go slow. Your guide’s job is to help you stay steady, but physics still wins.

Fili (Fiji) Waterfalls: four cascades and spring-fed details

After Sekumpul, the tour continues to the Fili (Fiji) waterfalls area. The info you’re given points to about four waterfalls in that broader zone. On the way there, you can also see two side-by-side waterfalls, including one described as 100% spring water.

I like this stop for a simple reason: it’s variety. Instead of one waterfall and done, you get a cluster effect. That means more moments for photos, different angles, and a better chance to find the exact spot that fits your comfort level—whether you want to stand back for safer viewing or get closer for spray.

And yes, the setting is described as a deep valley area. Translation: expect the humid “water air” feeling, cooler shade in the gorge, and rocks that can be slick even when the rest of Bali feels warm.

Time-wise, the Fili stop is listed as about two hours with admission included. That’s enough to move around, enjoy the falls, and still have energy for lunch and the day’s wrap-up.

Lunch, bottled water, and the value of included costs

The price is $90 per person, and the big value play here is what’s covered. You’re not just paying for a driver. The included set lists:

• private transportation
• an English-speaking trekking guide
• motorbike transfers to and from the start point
• bottled water
• lunch
• access to the jumping point and water slide river area (with safety helmet and supervisor)
• admission tickets for the included waterfall stops

For many Bali excursions, you pay a base fee and then get hit with entrance fees, lunch, and “small” refreshment costs that add up fast. This tour’s structure helps prevent that. You can plan your day without pulling out a calculator every time you see a ticket booth.

One small caution: optional stops exist (temples and viewpoints), and their entrance fees are not included. So if you stack those add-ons, your final spend will rise.

The jumping point and water slide river: the included water fun

This is a trek that doesn’t treat water time as an optional side quest. The included items state you’ll get access to a jumping point and water slide river area, with a safety helmet and supervisor.

That’s useful for two reasons:

1. It’s built into the tour, so you’re not hunting for an extra activity.
2. It’s structured with safety gear and on-site supervision, which makes the whole water element feel more guided than random.

Practical note: don’t show up with new sneakers you’ll hate later. Wear shoes you don’t mind getting wet, and bring that spare clothing pack you’re told to carry. You’ll feel better for it once the trek heat fades and you’re moving through cold-water areas.

Optional add-ons: Ulun Danu Beratan, Wanagiri, and Handara gate

If you want to shape the day beyond waterfalls, you can add optional stops:

• Ulun Danu Beratan temple
• Wanagiri hidden hills
• Bali Handara iconic gate

These are optional, and the entrance fees for them are not included. That means you should treat them as bonus time with extra costs, not part of the core waterfall value.

One smart way to use these add-ons: only add what matches your energy level. Since the main trek already runs long, I’d keep optional stops to one or two if you know you’ll be tired after the hike and water time.

Timing and what the 8–10 hours really means

The tour duration is listed as 8 to 10 hours. In practice, that span includes:

• morning pickup and drive
• time for motorbike transfers to reach the trek start
• trekking time across Sekumpul
• travel to Fili waterfalls
• lunch and the water-access segment
• the final ride back for drop-off

The lesson: plan your day around this. Skip anything time-sensitive later that day. Bali traffic and humidity can turn a “quick errand” into a headache.

Also, this is listed as a private tour/activity. Only your group participates, so you’re not fighting for space with a big crowd—at least once you’re on the trek.

Who this tour suits (and who should think twice)

This is a great fit if you want real waterfall time in a rural area without piecing together tickets and separate guides. It also suits you if you like photos but don’t want to gamble on getting to the right spots or figuring out timing yourself.

You should think twice if:

• you don’t handle uneven, wet trails well
• you expect a short, low-effort walk
• you’re traveling with someone who struggles with longer days in the humidity

The tour sets a minimum age of 10 years and notes that travelers should have a strong physical fitness level. That’s not “mean marketing.” It’s a practical warning.

What to pack so the day stays comfortable

The tour asks you to bring:

• shoes
• a towel
• hat and sunscreen
• a change of clothes after the activities
• cash for locals shopping or tipping

I’d add one more mindset: treat this as a wet day even if the weather looks dry in town. Waterfall areas on Bali can mean slippery stones and misty air, and the best way to enjoy it is to avoid feeling unprepared.

If you hate carrying a lot, pack light but bring the essentials. A towel and a spare set of clothes will make your return ride feel like a reward instead of a chore.

Price and logistics: is $90 good value?

At $90 per person, you’re paying for a full-day setup: pickup, transport, an English-speaking guide, motorbike transfers, lunch, bottled water, and included admission at both main waterfall stops. Add in water activity access with safety helmet and supervisor, and the tour isn’t just a hike—it’s a guided day with built-in “value moments.”

Where price can feel less ideal is if you plan to add multiple optional stops that require extra entrance fees. That’s not a flaw in the tour; it’s just how tourism costs work when you expand the itinerary.

My practical take: if waterfalls are your priority and you want fewer surprises, this is the kind of package that makes sense. If you prefer to spend your own time in temples and viewpoints, you might be happier mixing a self-guided day with only a single waterfall stop.

Should you book this Sekumpul and Fili waterfall trek?

I’d book it if you want a day that’s organized enough to reduce stress but adventurous enough to feel like you left the tourist map behind. Hotel pickup, entrance fees and lunch included, and motorbike transfers are the kind of details that turn “we should do that” into “we actually did it.”

Skip booking if you’re looking for something gentle, or if longer hours on wet terrain will be a problem. Also remember the optional temples and viewpoints can add entrance costs, so decide what you truly want before you commit.

If your goal is a straightforward, full-day Bali waterfall experience with the important logistics handled, Edy Smile Bali Tour’s Sekumpul and Fili trek is a solid choice.
